Trial Stalls as Defendants Lose Lawyers | Johannesburg News
Description
The KwaZulu-Natal riots trial, linked to over 350 deaths and $50 billion in damage, has hit a major snag as key defendants suddenly lost their lawyers, forcing a delay until July 27th while Legal Aid scrambles to appoint replacements. Charges include incitement, terrorism, and sedition — with Jacob Zuma’s daughter Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla facing specific accusations for fueling unrest via social media, despite her not guilty plea. The case, poised to resume with five State witnesses, now hinges on whether legal representation can be secured in time.
